You can have it all! We’ll be doing three combos in three distinct styles – elegant Egyptian classical, earthy & juicy Beladi and the sassy, energetic Sha’abi (Egyptian street style). We’ll be covering a bit of technique for style-specific movements too.

So, come and explore the range of Egyptian expression!

3 - 4:45 pm

Get Balanced!

With Rukshana

Ever wanted to learn how to keep a sword or tray on your head without looking like you’re working too hard?  How about some cool moves to do while performing with these items?  Performing with swords and trays cross the tribal/cabaret divide.  This class will introduce the novice to the techniques and tricks to tame your props and provide challenging combos for the more experienced dancer.  

You Will Need: sword or tray (if new to this, look for a tray with a 14 to 16” diameter that has some weight to it). You can also bring a heavy book. Hair with product in it works better than sparkly clean hair for balance props.  Hair combs help to level your head under the tray, as do headbands and some flat flowers.
